Few are my observations of motorists who flagrantly blow stop signs. Most perfunctorily slow to a near stop, and, having assessed the lack of opposing traffic, slide on through the intersection.

From a legal viewpoint, this may not be per the book, it is not unsafe, IMO.

As a motorist, I would resent being ticketed for such an infraction as much as if ticketed for same while riding my bike.

The enforcement energy would better be spent apprehending truly wreckless speeders who drive so fast that it is impossible for them to stop for either a light or a sign.

National Stop on Red Red Week? Nah, a boring effort to advocate for a non-issue, IMHO.
